Vulnerabilities fixed

Sourced from The GitHub Security Advisory Database.

Command injection in json This affects the package json before 10.0.0. It is possible to inject arbritary commands using the parseLookup function.

Affected versions: < 10.0.0

Changelog

Sourced from json's changelog.

10.0.0

  • Backward incompatible and security-related change to parsing "lookup" strings.

    This version restricts the supported syntax for bracketed "lookup" strings to fix a possible vulnerability (CVE-2020-7712). With a carefully crafted lookup string, command injection was possible. See #144 for a repro. If you use json (the CLI or as a node.js module) and run arbitrary user-provided strings as a "lookup", then you should upgrade.

    For the json CLI, a "lookup" string is the 'foo' in:

      echo ...some json... | json foo
    

    which allows you to lookup fields on the given JSON, e.g.:

      $ echo '{"foo": {"bar": "baz"}}' | json foo.bar
      baz
    

    If one of the lookup fields isn't a valid JS identifier, then the JS array notation is supported:

      $ echo '{"https://example.com": "my-value"}' | json '["https://example.com"]'
      my-value
    

    Before this change, json would effectively exec the string between the brackets as JS code such that things like the following were possible:

      $ echo '{"foo3": "bar"}' | json '["foo" + 3]'
      bar
    

    This change limits supported bracket syntax in lookups to a simple quoted string:

      ["..."]
      ['...']
      [`...`]      # no variable interpolation
    

    Otherwise generating an error of the form:

      json: error: invalid bracketed lookup string: "[\"foo\" + 3]" (must be of the form ['...'], ["..."], or [`...`])
